The exhibition, Three. creates a rich tapestry of artistic expression, highlighting the diverse voices and experiences of three talented Delaware artists. The exhibit invites viewers to explore the intersections of culture, identity, and creativity, celebrating the power of art to connect and inspire.

Delaware, August 10, 2023 – Three Delaware artists have been chosen for the Artist Career Development (ACD) pilot program, which offers two years of dedicated support to emerging and mid-career artists in the state. The selected artists are Stephanie Boateng (New Castle), Guy Miller (Kent), and Hannah Whiddon (Sussex).

“This program provides a valuable opportunity for up-and-coming artists to access funding and take their careers to the next level as creative entrepreneurs,” said Jessica Ball, Director of the Delaware Division of the Arts. “By enhancing their artistic and business skills, we aim to empower these individuals to realize their full potential and make a meaningful contribution to Delaware’s cultural landscape. We believe this strategic investment will help foster a vibrant, innovative, and collaborative artistic community throughout the state.”

Over the course of the two-year program, the three artists will each receive $10,000 to support their artistic and business development, as well as to strengthen connections within their local communities. In the second year, the artists will continue to expand their practices while planning and delivering an arts project in collaboration with an arts or community-based organization in their respective counties.

“40 Acres Deferred” - Prince Georges African American Museum and Cultural Center

Black Americans are presented frequently as homogenous urban people in mass media; this show challenges that notion by presenting nuanced representations of the black experience in suburban settings. The exhibition looks to investigate how we define the “American Dream” and if the pursuit of the aspiration incorporates elements that affirm our blackness. The exhibition engages other unifying themes including: migration, place-making, regional identity, family, political incorporation, education, and childhood.

“Deep Flash”

VisArts, Rockville, Maryland

In celebration of its 30th Anniversary, VisArts presents an exhibition in four galleries that explores the power of visual art to transform. Eleven curators selected a single work of art, a small curated group of artworks by multiple artists, or an art experience that addresses art’s ability to shift social, cultural, or personal forms. This exhibition was created in the spirit of sharing experiences and opening conversations about the “work” of art as a spark or trigger for conversions spectacular and subtle in both makers and viewers.

“30 Under 30” - Curated by Chrissie Iles

Viridian Gallery, NY, NY,

In a world changing culturally and politically more rapidly than ever, these artworks perhaps offer a clue to future ways artists look at their lives and times through art making. The artists in this exhibition were selected from a “call for art” the gallery sent out to discover what young artists are thinking about and creating art about in these times. From a wide range of applicants, the art of 30 artists - all under 30 years of age - was selected by Chrissie Iles, a curator at the Whitney Museum.
